Batista and the 5 Most Shocking Crowd Interactions in Pro Wrestling History

Batista's return to the WWE has certainly been eventful—he won the Royal Rumble despite wrestling for a little over 10 minutes since his second spell with the company began, after all.

However, one of the more striking moments was The Animal's reaction with the crowd after the Rumble match. He had an altercation with a fan in the crowd and then proceeded to stand at the top of the ramp and mock Daniel Bryan's "YES!" chant.

For a guy who is supposed to be a babyface, that is hardly the way to win over fans—which might explain some of the hideous reactions he has been getting since his return.

With that said, Batista isn't the only guy to have had interactions with the crowd in the WWE. Let's take a look at some more shocking examples.

5. Chris Jericho Threatens to Knock Fan out

Isn't Chris Jericho just an awesome heel? Here, Y2J is making his way through the crowd and cutting a heel promo when he comes into contact with a fan.

It's pretty obvious that Jericho doesn't like being touched, as he warns the guy initially to keep his hands off him. Does he listen? No. That leaves Jericho with no option. He threatens to knock the fan out if he does it again.

To be fair to the guy, he didn't go anywhere near Jericho after that. That was probably wise.

3. Eddie Guerrero Lands on His Feet

This was a remarkable moment from a live ladder match between Eddie Guerrero and Rob Van Dam on Raw.

In all fairness, it could have been a horrific incident. Guerrero was at the top of the ladder when a fan came in and purposely pushed the ladder over. Unfortunately for the fan, the agile Guerrero landed on his feet.

That prompted a furious reaction from the Mexican, unloading on the fan before security managed to haul him out of the ring.

The match continued as normal, but it was a stark reminder of how dangerous fan-wrestler interactions can be.
